Debauchery had yet to be imagined on a scale so grand. Neither the fraternizing of "Animal House", the sexual innuendo of "Revenge of the Nerds" or the laxative-induced toilet humor of "Dumb and Dumber" could even begin to approach this film's supreme depravity.
There is no line imaginable that the film doesn't cross: childhood has never been any less innocent. Even the weak of stomach though may appreciate some of the film's finer moments; such as Bill Gates getting his just desserts or the Baldwin family finally being run out of Hollywood.. the HARD way.
Amazingly the comedic team of Matt and Trey which made the TV show so great even pull cards on the Motion Picture Association; lampooning their ridiculous double standards when it comes to gratuitous sexual body parts while finding it perfectly acceptable to see people's heads blown apart. Undoubtedly they will miss the point, but those of us who have always understood South Park is intelligent satire hidden in chubby cheeked children's pre-adolescent pranks, the message rings happily and funnily true.
For a series which has already been made the most popular animated television show ever (eat your heart out Bart Simpson) and even been nominated for a GLAAD Award promoting acceptance and love towards homosexuals, this send-up of nearly every stereotype and ignorant "hick mountain town" attitude is a crowning achievement. It's really f*****g funny, dude.
